Rapeseed ES CURIEL

Stability and Control: Field Performance of ES Suriel

ES Suriel winter rapeseed from Euralis Semences is designed for growers who prioritize predictable results. In practice, with a seeding rate of 900,000 seeds per hectare, this hybrid shows excellent emergence and vigorous spring development. For an operator, it is a low-maintenance, reliable crop that responds well to standard management practices.

Technology and Protection

The core advantage of this hybrid is its Clearfield herbicide tolerance. This simplifies weed control significantly, allowing for post-emergence applications without the risk of crop damage. Furthermore, the hybrid shows robust resistance to key diseases such as Sclerotinia, Phoma, and Cylindrosporiosis. This translates into fewer fungicide passes throughout the season, optimizing production costs.

Morphology and Harvesting

The plant reaches a height of 150–160 cm and features high branching, which helps the crop canopy close quickly and shade out weeds. The flowering period is 30–40 days, leading to consistent pod development. With a yield potential of 50–60 dt/ha, combine settings should be adjusted to minimize harvest loss. The final product meets high quality standards:

• Oil content: 45–50%.
• Glucosinolate content: 13–14 mМоl.
• Low erucic acid levels.

ES Suriel stands firmly in the field, showing excellent resistance to lodging. Whether facing a rainy autumn or a volatile spring, this hybrid remains a steady performer, ensuring both high quality and volume at harvest.
